My 90 Day Challenges: test results today!!

Hey everybody, this is very cool, been getting lots of folks voting and giving me some inspiration too!!:) with just hours left to vote it is still super close!!
i'm combining votes from the MBG FB page, my FB page and this blog.Here's the results so far: Votes: Todays test results:

Power Wheel 100 yards + 40lb vest - 8 50 yards

Dunking - 7 Touched Rim, sore knee

Handstand walk 100 yards - 3 35 yards

HSW, PW, Dunking all 3 - 5

Power Wheel + 40lb vest crawl test:) not fun:)

Dunking test today, or vertical today:)

Handstand Test today:)

it's so close i am leaning towards all 3 as alot of folks have said PW is the most hard CORE:) haha play on words:) but then doing all would be dope too...so it's looking like all 3!! AAAAHHHH that will be some fun over the 90 days!!!:) i've already begun and have writen out a plan of action to achieve all 3 goals and will keep you all posted!!
90 Days of training to achieve my PW 100 + 40lb vest goal, Dunking and 100 yard HSW goal. To balance it all out i've thought of some others i'm gonna train as well over the next 90 days too...but i'm mainly focused on achieving these 3 as it looks right now it's a close heat and seems all 3 is the answer.
90 Days of eating clean as a whistle, got to be on point big time here to hit all 3 goals. so you might notice even more fruits, vegs and nuts and seeds:) hahaha if possible.
90 Days of keeping my body restored with Eischens Yoga Daily and hot/cold showers.
It's gonna be a great adventure my friends!!!
Ready!!
Here we GO!!!!

Okay, you've probably seen someone do this on a street sign somewhere and wished you could do it:)
Well you can:) and here is 5 steps to help you do the Flagpole:Lock out the arms: wide enough on a pole either vertical (thumbs in) or horizontal (palms in)Keeping arms locked, walk feet out about 3 feet from barJump Legs out (bent legs first) following one of the two methods:Either jump bent legs up higher than parallel as i'm doing in the video and then lower as control allowsOr, jump bent legs up to parallel and try to hold them...this is how i learned Do reps of kicking up to parallel and slowly lowering down and THEN kicking up to parallel and holding for as many seconds as possible with knees bent.Progress to straightening your legs: THIS is the Official Flagpole and done properly and 100% parallel to the floor is challenging BUT doing it at any angle and holding the legs/body off the ground is a GREAT START so keep practicing!!:)This is how i learned and practiced and afte…

Hey my friends, well it's Step 2 of my Handstand Walking tutorial....it's basic, simple stuff but you know what it works GREAT in getting new folks not only into a handstand, but doing Handstand walking! How well does it work? Well at just one CNT course a few years back we got all 23 students into holding a Handstand within 20 minutes....and that's 23 who had never even tried a handstand before!! Out of that 23, we then got 15 to walk on their hands in the next 5 minutes....no problem. So simple works just liket we teach at our Certified Natural Training (CNT) courses!!

SO, last week i showed you how to do step 1 in my Handstand Walking tutorial....just simply doing proper lateral handstand walking on the floor. Again, No Experience Necessary!

At the Monkey Bar Gym we do everything in 3 levels:
Stability / Strength / Power.
So for this weeks Handstand Walking Tutorial we'll begin at the 2nd step.....IF you can do the 1st step for 30 yards (15 yards each way with out s…

How do you assist Free Handstand push ups by yourself? Watch and try!!
You know when you say i'm gonna have a fun day of eating...or a cheat day? Well jess and i thought lets do this on sunday...it was fun, did not feel like cheating cause we felt good about it (important!) and nothing was really that bad....some multigrain pancakes, then we split a danish roll, a cookie and then a cupcake...or two:). Now although it was all still vegan, that really does not make a difference as all of the above was alot of processed foods, sat oils and tons of sugar!...the result come monday mornings workout....crap!:) Whew it was rough, neither of us slept well and the effect continued most of the day with lethargic training and generally a dull mood all day...lesson: If you're gonna have a cheat/fun meal or day do it with an off day of training afterwards. For example i usually train m-f... so saturday fun meal or day would of been a wiser choice so it does not interfere with your upcoming …
